More Than a Fresh Start

Is two and a half months off long enough? I would say so. It's so easy to start something and have all kinds of good intentions and then after a short, short while totally be off of it. I hate that part of my personality. It's such an ugly part of who I am. Which brings me to this posting's topic. Sometimes it's so easy to think, well, I'm just going to start over on this blog, I'm going to start blogging again and really keep up on it and be really committed to it. We think along these lines with so many issues in our life. We convince ourselves that I'm just going to give this another try, and this time I'll make it work. Totally void of the idea that, if this going to work this time, maybe I need to change my approach. Maybe you need more than just a fresh shot at the same situation, the same situation that you keep screwing up, maybe you need to get with God, change your outlook, change your heart, change your thought process, change your love walk, fix the prescription on your eyes of faith, change everything, and then go at your problem again. You need more than just a fresh start, you need a new heart.
